I know it is not time to celebrate yet. More and more bad news seeps in to our concious awareness every day. Today I read that seven young people died in a crash after running from a state trooper.

Many may say that what happened to them is the results of the choices they made. This may be so. However, it is sad to think that seven young lives will not experience anymore joy.

Hopefully some or all where born again Christians. That way they can rejoice in heaven. I know religion nor God sells very well these days. That is a tragedy.

Just one more of many. That is why I decided to stop living with my head in the sand. The world is a scary place. However, we only have ourselves to blame.

Not because we created most of the ugliness. Just because we allow the winds of influence to carry us.

That is what I was doing. I was allowing people's dissatisfied nature get the better of me. The scary part was when I found out no matter how hard I tried I could not help my self from reacting to peole's difficult nature.

I am conviced that we are headed towards a very serious human catacliysmic event. Something along the lines of nuclear dirty bomds taking out 1/4 of the world's population.

Of course that will only be the beginning.. I do believe that humanity has made a dangerous turn into cruelty and meanness. The driving force is lust for money. Media has complicated these conditions.

The images along with lights and sounds make serious impressions. I think some of us suffer from Hollywooditist. Our lives are so dissatisfying that we compensate by minicking the behaviors of actors in our every lives.

That is why I decide to make a change "For the Good".

Thet world may be falling apart. I do not have to fall a part with it.
